This “19th Cent Moon Dial Longcase, Long Case, Grandfather Clock” found a buyer.

It was listed by Cross Antiques. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.

Description

Smart 19th Cent Longcase clock by Kimich & Co, Bath. They are listed as working there in the mid 19th Cent.

The case is of typical West country design with a wavey edge to the hood and no back feet (it was designed to lean against a wall) It is in nicely figured mahogany and has retained it's original eagle and ball finials. The trunk door also has it's original lock and key.

The 8 day movement strikes the hours on a bell. It has a very decorative painted dial with subsidiary seconds and date dials. The arch displays the phases of the moon.

The case is in good original condition. The movement is in good working order and keeping good time. The dial is original and has some crazing and minor marks but considering it is getting on for 200 years old it is pretty good.

National and international delivery arranged at cost.

Date of Manufacture

Cross Antiques has dated this Antique Moon Dial Grandfather Clock to the Victorian era.

A longcase clock, commonly known as a grandfather clock, featuring a mechanical moon phase complication on the dial to track the lunar cycle alongside standard time.

These clocks are typically constructed from solid timber cases, most commonly mahogany, oak, or walnut, housing brass clockwork movements and painted or enamelled metal dials.

Authentication involves examining the movement for hand-finished brass parts, checking the timber construction for period-appropriate joinery and patina, and matching the makers signature on the dial to historical records.

Position the clock as a focal point in a hallway, living room, or study, allowing its architectural timber presence to anchor the surrounding contemporary furnishings.

Regular maintenance includes professional mechanical servicing every few years, keeping the case away from direct sunlight and heat sources, and ensuring the clock is properly levelled on the floor.
